clouds

A long time ago, a nation very far awayYoung men stood on a hillside, dreaming of another dayThey never knew what this would lead to, all these visions, all these thingsAll they knew was that they’d never lose the power of the dream

And now a thousand years later, and a million miles sinceYou can still hear them coming, hear their voices in the wind, they’re singingA million different cities where the people cried aloudYou could hear the changes coming in the clouds

[It came in the clouds that dayBlowing open heaven’s gatesComing in on the winds of changeThe day it all came downThat day was filled with clouds]

They saw a new heaven and earth, a new birth, new universe, born right here on the earthThey knew that if this was to happen everything would have to changeThey’d bring the revolution and the day

[chorus]

The change they knew was coming never took them by surpriseBut lifted them unspoken with the winds into the skiesAnd now you can hear their voices, all eternity they cryImmortal they’re a beacon in the sky
